mutts, be they canine or feline are the best....
For the most part, I would agree with you, but we had a pure bred German Shepard that the parents were trained seeing eye dogs and that dog was the only dog I truly loved (being a cat person at heart). That sweetheart was mostly an indoor dog, but seemed to be aware of it's presence and never broke anything in the house by it's hi-jinks. It loved to sit in your lap even when it was too big to do so. But, let anyone threaten his family and he was a tiger.
“mutts, be they canine or feline are the best....’
I agree! Particularly those who have been dumped out in the middle of nowhere or have been taken in by rescue groups.
